TrED is a database of Trichophyton rubrum, a fungus. The database contains strains, cDNA libraries, pathways, and microarray data as well as a directed set of literature. Trichophyton rubrum is the most common dermatophyte species and the most frequent cause of fungal skin infections in humans worldwide. It''''s a major concern because feet and nail infections caused by this organism is extremely difficult to cure. A large set of expression data including expressed sequence tags (ESTs) and transcriptional profiles of this important fungal pathogen are now available. Careful analysis of these data can give valuable information about potential virulence factors, antigens and novel metabolic pathways. We intend to create an integrated database TrED to facilitate the study of dermatophytes, and enhance the development of effective diagnostic and treatment strategies. All publicly available ESTs and expression profiles of T. rubrum during conidial germination in time-course experiments and challenged with antifungal agents are deposited in the database. In addition, comparative genomics hybridization results of 22 dermatophytic fungi strains from three genera, Trichophyton, Microsporum and Epidermophyton, are also included. ESTs are clustered and assembled to elongate the sequence length and abate redundancy. TrED provides functional analysis based on GenBank, Pfam, and KOG databases, along with KEGG pathway and GO vocabulary. It is integrated with a suite of custom web-based tools that facilitate querying and retrieving various EST properties, visualization and comparison of transcriptional profiles, and sequence-similarity searching by BLAST. TrED is built upon a relational database, with a web interface offering analytic functions, to provide integrated access to various expression data of T. rubrum and comparative results of dermatophytes. It is devoted to be a comprehensive resource and platform to assist functional genomic studies in dermatophytes.

A collection of omics datasets (mRNA, proteins and miRNA) that have been extracted from PubMed and other related renal databases, all related to kidney physiology and pathology giving KUP biologists the means to ask queries across many resources in order to aggregate knowledge that is necessary for answering biological questions. Some microarray raw datasets have also been downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus and analyzed by the open-source software GeneArmada. The Semantic Web technologies, together with the background knowledge from the domain's ontologies, allows both rapid conversion and integration of this knowledge base. SPARQL endpoint http://sparql.kupkb.org/sparql The KUPKB Network Explorer will help you visualize the relationships among molecules stored in the KUPKB. A simple spreadsheet template is available for users to submit data to the KUPKB. It aims to capture a minimal amount of information about the experiment and the observations made.

Functional Analysis of Transcriptional Networks (FunNet) is designed as an integrative tool for analyzing gene co-expression networks built from microarray expression data. The analytical model implemented in this tool involves two abstraction layers: transcriptional (i.e. gene expression profiles) and functional (i.e. biological themes indicating the roles of the analyzed transcripts). A functional analysis technique, which relies on Gene Ontology and KEGG annotations, is applied to extract a list of relevant biological themes from microarray gene expression data. Afterwards multiple-instance representations are built to relate relevant biological themes to their annotated transcripts. An original non-linear dynamical model is used to quantify the contextual proximity of relevant genomic themes based on their patterns of propagation in the gene co-expression network (i.e. capturing the similarity of the expression profiles of the transcriptional instances of annotating themes). In the end an unsupervised multiple-instance spectral clustering procedure is used to explore the modular architecture of the co-expression network by grouping together biological themes demonstrating a significant relationship in the co-expression network. Functional and transcriptional representations of the co-expression network are provided, together with detailed information on the contextual centrality of related transcripts and genomic themes. FunNet is provided both as a web-based tool and as a standalone R package. The standalone R implementation can be run on any operating system for which an R environment implementation is available (Windows, Mac OS, various flavors of Linux and Unix) and can be downloaded from the FunNet website, or from the worldwide mirrors of CRAN. Both implementations of the FunNet tool are provided freely under the GNU General Public License 2.0. Platform: Online tool, Windows compatible, Mac OS X compatible, Linux compatible, Unix compatible

hiPathDB is an integrated pathway database that combines the curated human pathway data of NCI-Nature PID, Reactome, BioCarta and KEGG. In total, it includes 1661 pathways consisting of 8976 distinct physical entities. (2010.03.09) hiPathDB provides two different types of integration. The pathway-level integration, conceptually a simple collection of individual pathways, was achieved by devising an elaborate model that takes distinct features of four databases into account and subsequently reformatting all pathways in accordance with our model. The entity-level integration creates a single unified pathway that encompasses all pathways by merging common components. Even though the detailed molecular-level information such as complex formation or post-translational modifications tends to be lost, such integration makes it possible to investigate signaling network over the entire pathways and allows identification of pathway cross-talks. Another strong merit of hiPathDB is the built-in pathway visualization module that supports explorative studies of complex networks in an interactive fashion. The layout algorithm is optimized for virtually automatic visualization of the pathways.

http://operons.ibt.unam.mx/OperonPredictor/
The Prokaryotic Operon DataBase (ProOpDB) constitutes one of the most precise and complete repository of operon predictions in our days. Using our novel and highly accurate operon algorithm, we have predicted the operon structures of more than 1,200 prokaryotic genomes. ProOpDB offers diverse alternatives by which a set of operon predictions can be retrieved including: i) organism name, ii) metabolic pathways, as defined by the KEGG database, iii) gene orthology, as defined by the COG database, iv) conserved protein motifs, as defined by the Pfam database, v) reference gene, vi) reference operon, among others. In order to limit the operon output to non-redundant organisms, ProOpDB offers an efficient protocol to select the more representative organisms based on a precompiled phylogenetic distances matrix. In addition, the ProOpDB operon predictions are used directly as the input data of our Gene Context Tool (GeConT) to visualize their genomic context and retrieve the sequence of their corresponding 5�� regulatory regions, as well as the nucleotide or amino acid sequences of their genes. The prediction algorithm The algorithm is a multilayer perceptron neural network (MLP) classifier, that used as input the intergenic distances of contiguous genes and the functional relationship scores of the STRING database between the different groups of orthologous proteins, as defined in the COG database. Nevertheless, the operon prediction of our method is not restricted to only those genes with a COG assignation, since we successfully defined new groups of orthologous genes and obtained, by extrapolation, a set of equivalent STRING-like scores based on conserved gene pairs on different genomes. Since the STRING functional relationships scores are determined in an un-bias manner and efficiently integrates a large amount of information coming from different sources and kind of evidences, the prediction made by our MLP are considerably less influenced by the bias imposed in the training procedure using one specific organism.
